2016 Speed Triple
I'm not sure how much of a change they are from the current model.
The photos on Visordown don't tell us much

That bike has got the side front fork reflectors on which I think is for the US market.
The engine looks different. I like those black cans but they could be masked up for testing. Looks like Brembo monoblocks as well.

Re: 2016 Speed Triple
The side reflectors are a requirement on all bikes sold in Europe from 2017 I think. It's part of the Euro 4 requirements.

Re: 2016 Speed Triple
The latest Multistrada comes with them as it's the first bike sold in the UK meeting Euro 4. Those who have bought one are now working out how to remove them.

Re: 2016 Speed Triple
It's a great bike, but I can't help thinking they have missed out here, if they don't revamp in a bigger way, than just adding a few electronics to the package.

Re: 2016 Speed Triple
Didn't realise we would need a reflector on the side soon, I don't understand why we need them just making bikes look ugly. As for the new generation of street, well it's not that
bad if it's got 140BHP. does this mean the Daytona will be soon increased to that sort of figure plus?

Re: 2016 Speed Triple
I think you're mixing up your Triumphs Rossgo. The bike in this thread is the SPEED triple and not the STREET triple. The speed has a 1050cc engine not 675 which is why it has more power.Rossgo wrote:Didn't realise we would need a reflector on the side soon, I don't understand why we need them just making bikes look ugly.
